That's good news for me, that means I'm not alone with my blurries of P3D v3 (32 bit). It seems to have solved the problem for the guys with 64 bit P3D v4 though.

You would be surprised to see how many people still cling onto FS2004, let alone FSX.

Yes.. if it's a question of $$$, I can understand them. Otherwise there is absolutely no reason to stick to FSX anymore.

Did you find something that might be causing the problems?

Yes, I managed to connect to one of our testers that has everything from OrbX installed, made several tests, and we were finally able to see the blurries! They couldn't possibly appear with the default scenery but, with the added load caused by the ginormous number of files added by OrbX, allowed to see the problem.

And yes, it was entirely MY fault: when porting the Addon Manager code from FSX to P3D4, the most difficult part wasn't porting to 64 bit, that was easy, but rewriting lots of code to support Unicode. A single function wasn't converted correctly, and that slowed down the file access, but it could be noticed only if the simulator was already overloaded by other addons.

And no, Couatl and GSX didn't had anything to do with it...it was just a single line of code in the Addon Manager which I overlooked.

Excellent news! I have P3D 4.3, and do indeed have Orbx Global textures, NA Landclass and Vector. The global textures probably don’t add any additional load, but I’m sure that Landclass and Vector do.

I just re-flew the flight to KDTW that was causing major performance problems, and it worked perfectly with the new Addon Manager. Thank you for your diligent efforts to get to the bottom of this problem.

it isn't over yet... still doesn't work for FSX

Please run the FSDT Live Update now. I'm confident it should work much better now.

Looks ok on my side. Thank you!  :)  :-*

WHAO! wHaO ... good work and well done!
Do we need to reinstall or just run LIVE UPDATE ...?

If it's still an issue for fsx, maybe it should have been been called "p3d v4" only

You made like 8 postings in the last two hours. I think they get the message. Even FSDT needs to sleep seeing they were up pretty late from the earlier post working and fixing the problem. The update came out around midnight EST in the US so I know for FSDT in Europe it was extremely late for them.
